Victrix 42nd Highlanders - Ready to Meet Perry Cuirassiers

Finished the mounted colonel, as well as the colors which were downloaded (or uploaded - whatever, the term is) from Warflag.com - thanks guys! A little bit of contrasting strokes of color were added to the flags to make them appear more lively; trying to be similar to the LBMS style.

Here's the colonel brandishing his broadsword in front of his regiment; and flanked by his color bearers and musicians.

The horse is one that was completed earlier and mounted with an officer that I don't have a regiment painted up yet. So I removed him and replaced him with this Highland officer. I think I erred by painting the piper's kilt in Royal Stuart pattern; seems this may only have appeared a little later - mid-19th Century, perhaps? He'll stay the way he is though, and we'll see what kind of comments we get about him.

Aerial view of the entire unit - at least for now. I may end up adding a few more guys; but it's big enough for a small skirmish game against some Perry French Heavy cavalry.

On the WAB front, the Epirote army, along with those Successor elephants, are packed up for a playtest next week using the 2nd Ed. changes. This will be followed by a game up in Seattle at a first-ever summer one-day event hosted by the Metro Seattle Gamers at their clubhouse. In the paint queue are a box of Perry French Hussars, 24 Foundry Successor Silver Shields, and hopefully some Langton Roman ships.
